I t w ill however, be some satisfaction to the public to : n a p , that on l y one or two w i tnesses gave an opinion a avc ur of making the Post-office a means of collecting c , reve nue. One of them, Mr. BIANCONI, the itelebrated mail-car contractor in Ireland, defends the ground that it falls wholly on those who rite for b us i ness or amusement. Th e poor cannot bll °w, as sev era l w it nesses prove , use th e Post•office e c ause of it s exp en s e , an d t o b e w h o lly exc l u d e d f rom it,, benefits, appears in Mr. BIANCONI'S estimation to e neither a loss nor a suffering. The other witness ' 4 its favour goes no further than to say that it is ju dicious, if it do not prevent communication and pro (like illicit trade, which amounts to a strong disap proval of the present Post-office tax. All the other Witnesses who are asked the question depose against making the Post-office a source of revenue, and use v l e rY strong language on the subject. The cautious 4-4,l°4lAstißußToN, for example, says, " I have always is : 11 °ught it a bad means of raising a revenue. I think it en e of the worst of our taxes. We have unfortu atelY many t axes w hi c h h ave an i n j ur i ous t en d en cy, tullut think few, if any, have so injurious a tendency as t e ta x upon the communication of letters."

The Catholics of Ireland have purchased with their blood the extinction of this tyrannical impost ; and—whatever threats Mi nisters may indulge in—they now know too well the secret of their own strength, and can calculate with sufficient confidence upon the moral support, which they will receive from the people of England and Scotland, to doubt the final result. But we ask the Go vernment—we will even put it to the Protestant Priest hood oflreland themselves—ls it consonant with reason, with the maxims of sound policy, or with the genius of Christianity, to endeavour to uphold a system which they must know and feel is doomed to de struction by provoking a wanton effusion of innocent blood ? Surely it is not judged necessary to add to the unpopularity of the Protestant Church in Ireland, in order to attach a miraculous importance to any Irish conversions to the Reformed faith ? The most furious zealot will find reason to be satisfied with the obstacles which a Reformed Priesthood have thrown i❑ his way in the event of his attempting the diffusion of Pro testantism in the sister country, without the addition to old scores, of a new listof muiders. If there is one sect or party, political or religious!, ,hat would be more benefited than another by the speedy and amicable settlement of affairs in Ireland it is the party that formerly called themselves Tory— that lately adopted the epithet of Conservative—that would now be called Improvers, but who may be more properly and comprehensively designated by the epithet Irish-haters. By their bigotted opposition to every concession to the Catholics, till extorted by fear—by their suicidal declarations to maintain that monstrous establishment the Irish Church, in all its in tgrity—and by the detestable epithets heaped by .heir organs on seven millions of Catholics, hey have acquired a character in that country vhich, till modified by new concessions, and proofs of sincere repentance, will continue to keep them out of I office ; or, what is more galling, expel them, after a few months' tenure, as they were expelled in 1835. It is impossible, from the nature of things, that the re sult can be otherwise. A standing force of seven millions, or nearly one-third of the inhabitants of the Kingdom, united as one body, and ready to join any party, or parties, against the Government, must form a fearful odds against the durability of a Tory Adminis tration. And what, in fact, keeps the Whigs in office at the present moment but the folly of these Irish haters ? By one means and another the repre sentatives of Great Britain are nearly equally balanced. The Irish Members turn the scale—and why ? Not from their numbers, but because they are supported by many English and Scotch Members, who can see only endless strife or civil war by the return to office of men who will not grant municipal rights to their fellow subjects because they are Catholics, and who, though' they have cut off half a score of Bishops, abolished Church-eess, and given the landowners a fourth of the tithes, will still persevere in refusing even the Smallest portion of this sacred Church property, thus invaded in every quarter, for the moral and religious education of the people. How would the case stand between Whigs and Tories, if Sir ROBERT PEEL were to come forward as he did in 1829, or do as Lord ELLEN BOROUGH avowed the Tories were ready to do in 1832, and offer more ample concessions and more sweeping meastlres of Reform than any yet proposed for Ireland, by placing that country on a footing of perfect equality with Great Britain ? Would he fina the Irish Catholic Members arrayed in a compact body in his front as now ? Would all the Liberal British Members oppose him when justice was rendered to Ireland? and would the tithes and the Irish Protestant Church be exposed to half the danger that now threatens them from the simultaneous rising of land• lords, tenants, and peasants, at present directed only against tithes, but in a short time probably to be directed against every species of Church property ? The danger that threatens us from that quarter, by listening to the voice of bigotted Orangemen, cannot he regarded without fear. Sir ROBERT PEEL has found to his cost what their support is worth ; and, as he once threw them overboard when they stood in the way of a great healing measure, we cannot antici pate that he will allow them to keep one-third of the empire in a state of dangerous excitement, by refusing to concede what does not amount to the tenth part of the concessions made to Catholics during the present generation. -Mb We insert in another place an account of the pro ceedings of a public meeting held at Bombay, to con sider of erecting a memorial to Sir ROBERT GRANT, the late lamented Governor of that Presidency. By his humane, diligent, and wise conduct in his Govern ment, Sir ROBERT GRANT extended the reputation he had previously acquired in England. Here, how ever, he was chiefly known as an accomplished though somewhat fastidious orator, and all his worth was not appreciated till he was removed to a sphere where almost unlimited power called forth his virtues. With a sage on the throne, despotism is said to be the best form of Government, and Sir ROBERT GRANT seems to have been one of those men to whom despotism might be safely entrusted. " Not , a class," says a Contemporary, " not a trade, even, seems to have been overlooked by him, in his exer tions for improvement ;" and, accordingly, the speakers at the meeting could not praise him enough. He was zealous in removing abuses, and promoting improve ments ; and the manner in which those w ho were under his sway now speak of him, is a more honourable memorial than any constructed of brass or marble. When we are so frequently pained by examples of statesmen making splendid pronitses only to betray, it is refreshing to find in this honest Governor a gentleman who did more for the public benefit than he promised, or than the people expected. We have inserted elsewhere an excellent letter from Dr. MURRAY, the Catholic Archbishop of Dublin, to the Most Rev. Dr. MACHALE, alias JOHN TUAM, a person of some talent, certainly, but distinguished chiefly by his assumption of a title which does not be long to him, and by a furious opposition to the Na tional System of Education in Ireland. Dr. Mutt- RAY'S object in the letter alluded to is to show that the objections which JOHN TUAM has brought for ward against the National System are without founda tion, and this purpose he has accomplished in an ad mirable manner. Nothing can be more complete than his refutation of Dr. MACH ALE'S charges, nothing more beautiful than the style in which he administers reproof to his erring brother, whose late conduct has excited the surprise and regret of every enlightened Catholic in Ireland, and of every friend to Ireland else where. That conduct was indeed a mystery which nobody could fathom until now that Dr. Mutt RAY has furnished the public with a solution—a solution which must render the future hostility of JOHN TUAM to the National System perfectly harmless. It now appears that all the new-born zeal which this pious and humble-minded ecclesiastic has exhibited to protect the Catholic faith in Ireland from the awful danger to which it is exposed by the National System, is not altogether so pure—not quite so free from the alloy of carnal motives, as he would have the world believe. We learn from Dr. MURRAY'S letter, that not long before the first outburst of Dr. MAcHALE's wrath against the National System, in which he denounced it as every thing that was hateful in principle, and objectionable in practice, anathematizing, at the same time, every person concerned in its administration, this very Dr. MA cHALE had applied to the Board of Com missioners for a grant of money wherewith to esta blish a National school at a place called Holly mount Now the simple fact that JOHN 'FOAM made such an application is the strongest proof that can be given that, up to that time at least, he approved of the system' which he has since discovered to be so fraught with evil. We arc bound to believe, too, that this approval was not an unconsidered act ; it must have been the result of deliberation. Nothing•short of a profound conviction of the soundness of the system arising from a strict investigation of its merits, could have secured for it the patronage of so doughty a champion of the ancient faith. To suppose that he adopted it with out such examination, would be in the highest degree derogatory to his character ; for it would be to suppose that the watchman placed on the house top —nay, on one of the highest pinnacles of the Catholic Church —had fallen asleep on his post. How, then, are we to account for so sudien a wheel to the other side—so perfect a piece of Jim Crowism—in so grave a personage as an Archbishop, and on so grave a subject as National Education ? Alas, for poor human nature f It is, after all, much the same in lawn sleeves and under a frieze jacket. JOHN T uAm applied for a grant of money to establish a school in the house of t'te Rev. James Mac Hale, and the grant was ref used. Here is the secret of JOHN'S hostility to the National System and its ad ministrators. The Most Reverend Archbishop wanted to perpetrate a snug little job, and was defeated in the attempt. This disappointment still rankles in a breast not often visited, we fear, by the virtues of meekness, humility, and charity.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, Nov. 12.—The transactions in our Cotton Market this day are only to a moderate extent. The sales are 3,000 bags, at Friday's quotations. Accounts from Athens to the Ist of October state that his Majesty has left on a tour to Roumelia—as it is expected that his journey will have the promised effect, and the King will see in person the numerous abuses which have pervaded this province for a length of time. Accounts from Constantinople state that a commission has been sent to Trebisond ; its objects are to establish and preserve the health of that city ; and it has already made the following dispositions :- 1. A sanatory cordon has been placed round the town, and an inspection of three days of all persons and merchandize which arrive from the different points of the interior. 2. All persons who wish to embark at Tresbisonde for Con stantinople, in steamers or other vessels, must perform a quarantine of fifteen days, in a locality situated in one of the faubourgs. 3. The provinces or the Capital are admitted to free pra tique, with the exception of steam-vessels, and, for their own safety, must not communicate with the town, to prevent their being put into quarantine, or their getting to Con stantinople. - Letters from Trebisonde to the 27th September, state that a great improvement in the public health has taken place, and that the pest was on the decline. Great hopes are enter tained from the measure taken by the Commission sanitaire. lily • of 'his aits O ri tte' , l l l ld 5 1 1 , ei yi tile I. for Bid 0 1 0 1 oit b isl , the r ncirl s 'l,e - nt o .s l io .4 0 tbe at - t r o° ofe Stet ' Y"t Loje a bl :eroo oo, iff• I na ( ~I t b " e ter' co:, Cle be lh° o s W il r street, 1 at ''' 5001 11' 5 or die 1::t - t elle° bol e porl" Ge r geOr t ; atig t 011" i or' Or e 3 t IV 5e t o le -,. s I rhe d ro ct -o° e 11, IC s i j V r C r , 3p, er 4e. io re Are P r ' i na t° ' • sae 0,0 l o t rß' 00. ,01 r d Ici f wo co'c -10 beaC cr „tio 6,6 c - , 4)10 THE SUN, LONDON, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 1838.

BOOTH U. LEICESTER-JUDGMENT. The LORD CIIANCELLOR gave judgment to-day in this case, which came before the Court upon appeal from the decision of the Master of the Rolls, referring it to the Master to take an account of what was done in respect of the annuities in the cause without interest, and also granting an injunction re straining some of the parties from proceeding to enforce the judgment they had obtained in the courts in -Ireland for the payment of these annuities. Certain large annuities had been charged by Sir John Roger Palmer upon his estates in Ireland, and also upon the estates of Lady Palmer in this country. Sir John Roger Palmer dying without paying the annuities,the bill was filed by the assigneeA of the annuitants for the purpose of obtaining payment with interest. Upon the case coming on before the present Master of the Rolls, his Lordship declared that the English estates of Lady Palmer were to be consi dered assets of Sir John Palmer, and therefore liable to the payment of the annuities, and referred it to the Master to take an account of what was due in respect of the annuities, with out interest. From this decision the present appeal was brought. His Lordship, after going at some length into the facts of the case, and the authorities on the subject, stated his opinion to be, that the judgment of the Master of the Rolls avas perfectly correct, and ordered the appeal to be dismissed, with costs. WYNNIATT V. 'ANDO. The arguments in this part.heprd case were resumed to-clky. The case came before the Court upon appeal from the judgment of the Master of the Rolls pronounced so long ago as 1831. The bill was filed by Mr. \Vynniatt to compel the defendant specifically to perform a con tract to purchase from the plaintiff an estate, called Gorkham, in Gloucestershire, tithe free, for the sum of 150000/. The defendant objected to the completion of the purchase, en the ground that the plaintiff had not proved that the l an d was tithC . free. On the case coming on before Sir John Leach, he declared that the plaintiff had made out that the land was tithe free, and decreed accordingly ; from that Judgment, the present appeal was brought. The arguments were proceeding when our reporter left, and appeared likely to occupy the whole day. ROLLS' COURT.-(THIS DAY.) The MASTER of the ROLLS durieg the early part of the morn ng took consent petitions and short causes. SILVERTOP V. RAMSAY.—SOLICITORS' BILLS OF COSTS. Mr. KINDERSLEY, who appeared fur the petitioner, Mr. Ge•wge Dacre, said this was an application by a creditor to be paid out of the fund in Court the amount which the Master bad reported to be due to him. The Master had found 1,7004 to be due to him, and the only question on this petition wa., whether Mr. Dacre ought to pay the costs of ascertain ing what was duo to him. In the common case of a creditor, he would not have to pay or receive costs, but he un d rstood it would be contended he ought to pay costs on this ground, that what was due to him was due to him in the charac , er of solicitor on bills of costs, and that inasmuch as the Master found the sum duo to him to be one-sixth less than he originally claimed, it was a case in which, under the Act of the Ist Geo. IL, regulating the practice of solicitors, Mr. Dacre ought to pay the costs of taxation. That statute di. reefed that whet e more than one-sixth of a solicitor's bill was taken off the solicitor should pay the costs of taxation. But ho submitted that Act did not apply to the present case, because Mr. Dacre must be considered as a creditor. Lord LANGDALE—IS he a common creditor, or does he come here by petition ? Mr. KINDERSLEY—By petition. Lord LANGDALE—Why, is he not paid in the ordinary dis tribution of the estate? Mr. KINDERSLEY—What the cause is, Ido not know my Lord ; he did not come in with the general body of creditors. Lord LANGDALE—Then he has created the expence by his own ladies. Mr. KINDIRSLEY—There is no additional expense oc. casioncd. Ki L nd o e r r d sie Ly, "D Lord LANGDA LE- Thi s petition is occasioned by it. Mr. KINDERSLEY—TIIO question doe s no t rel a te to the costs -- G tha A t i i ß f of this p e titi on, b ut to the proceedings in the Masters' office. ae D a o ,di y t o n u r a c e a e r s r i y n a i t nd so m a l k i i e g s h a a e s lai t m hi , s h M nw r : ever vexatious, he is not to be charged with costs ? Mr. KINDERSLEY thought his Lordship would hardly say that in every common case where a solicitor had a sixth of his bill taken off, it was to be treated as vexatious. Mr. PEMBERTON, contra, submitted that even if there were no special circumstances in this case it would be quite of course that Mr. Dacre should pay the costs; and for this reason, that if he had brought an action to recover payment of his bill, and the client had petitioned to have the bill taxed, and a sixth had been taken off, Mr. Dacre must have paid the costs. In this case there had been a decree for an account, and Mr. Dacre came in after his time. Mr. Dacre had been a solictor, but ceased to be so in 1837. A decree was made in the cause in July, 1830, for taking the usual ac counts, and in July, 1831, the Master having made his report of debts, the cause was heard on further directions; and in May, 1832, Mr. Dacre presented his petition for leave to esta blish his debt. He did nothing under that order till March, 1837, when he brought in 29 bills of costs, amounting in the whole to 2,1711. ; those bills were taxed, and 7911. taken off. He was now applying to have the amount of his bills, minus the 791/ , paid to him, but objected to pay the costs of taxing the 29 bills, the whole expense of which he had thrown upon his (Mr. Pemberton's) client. The Court could not do less than order him to pay those costs. _ Mr. KINDERSLEY submitted Mr. I/lore must be considered as a creditor, and his bill of costs treated the same as if it were a bill of costs for business done as general agent or a tradesman's bill. Lord LANGDALE-This gentleman comes and asks the as sistance of this Court in establishing a legal demand. For that purpose it is necessary to resort to taxation; that taxation has considerably reduced the demand, and I cannot help think ng this is a case in which the Court has sufficient jurisdiction ,o make him pay the costs of that proceeding. SCOTT V. SCARBOROUGH. art-heard case was then proceeded with. This VICE-CHANCERY.-(THIS DAY.) PROTHEROE D. GOOD. The arguments in this case which were commenced yester day, were resumed to-day. The case came before the Court upon a motion to dissolve an injunction restraining the de fendant from using a level in a Welch coal mine. His Hosoun refused to dissolve the injunction.

Mr. NVIGHTMAN, in this case, applied to their Lordships to fix a day on which the defendant might come up and receive the j u d g ment of the Court. He had been convicted at the last Liverpool .Assizes of subtracting a witness in a case of urand judgment had been passed w ith out t h e d efendant ,mvpder, earing. He was extrem e ly p oor , an d cou ld not rema i n in London for any time without very great inconvenience. Lord DENMAN thought it better that they should adhere to the rule laid down. The application must come on in the form of a motion at the end of the Term. The COURT then took the special paper. COMMON PLEAS.-(THIS DAY.) BOTTOMBY V. FORBES. This was an action, on a charter-party for' the freight o some cotton shipped for defendants at Bombay, to London, and the question was whether the freight was to be calculated by the measurement taken at Bombay, immediately after the cotton had been pressed in powerful screws, or by the measurement taken when the cotton arrived in the port of London, after it had expanded considerably. The difference between the two measurements in the tonnage being to be calculated at fifty cubic feet per ton, amounted to no less than 93 tons. The Jury found for the defendant. Last week Sir W. Follett showed cause against a rule nisi, obtained by Sergeant Wilde, for a new trial. Th e p o i nt to b e d ec ided was, whether the defendant should have been permitted at the trial to adduce evidence of the custom in the trade, that custom being to abide by the 'Bombay admeasurement. Serg. WILDE now continued his argument in support of the rule, contending that evidence of custom was only to be ad mitted where the terms used in the contract wore ambiguous; that in the present case there was no ambiguity in the expres sion ; and that in the absence of any stipulation to the con trary, the charter-party was to be construed according to what he affirmed was the known rule of law in such cases—that freight was to be calculated at the port of delivery. Mr. GIRDLESTONE followed on the same side. The COURT, at the conclusion of a very lengthened argu ment, said they had no doubt as to the first point, that the rule ought to be discharged ; but, on the admissibility of the evidence rejected, they took time to consider. EXCHEQUER COURT.-(THIS DAY.) TIOLKER V. WRAY. Mr. KELLY moved to set aside the verdict for the plaintiff in this case, and to enter a nonsuit pursuant to leave reserved to him by Mr. Baron Alderson, before whom the trial was had at Guildhall on Thursday last. The facts of the case were these :—Ahoot the latter endof last year thopetitioners, who are linen drapers at Worthing, were indebted to the defendant, a wholesale silk-merchant, in London, in the sum of 71/. 6s. They had had many transactions with the defendant, all of which had been conducted through a person named Minstul, who had frequently signed bills in the name of the plaintiffs. Minshul was instructed to pay the defendant 71/. 6s. on the part of the plaintiffs, but he onlypaid 50/. on account, leaving a balance of 21/ 6s. owing on the part of the plaintiff. Minshul had dealings on his own account with defendant, and owed him the sum of 24/. 95., and he gave a bill for the whole sum of 45/. Iss. When it became due Minshul had absconded, and was made a bankrupt. The defendants sent up their solicitor to town to make inquiries into the extent of their liabilities, and, among others, he called upon the defendant, who slid he held a bill from Minshul on the plain tiffs' account for the sum of 45/. 155., which was paid. The plaintiffs afterwards found out the real state of the case, and brought his action for the recovery of the 241. 93., which he had overpaid on the misrepresention of the defendant. The Learned Gentleman contended that the plaintiffs had no right to bring the action unless they had given up the bill, or at least made a tender of it, as it was a security belonging to the defendant against the estate of Minshul. The case was similar to that of a horse bought under a warranty, which turned out unsound—the purchaser had no right of action until he had either returned the horse, or had tendered it ; so, in this case, the plaintiffs ought to have returned the bill, or have tendered it, before bringing the action. The COURT said—The money having been paid upon a mis representation made by the defendant, the plaintiffs' right of action accrued the moment they had parted with it, and there fore there was no necessity for their giving up the bill, or ten dering it. No doubt they would give it up when they were paid their money ; if not, the defendant had his right to an action of trover.—Rule granted. BAIL COURT.-(THIS DAY.) THE QUEEN V. ALDERSON. Sir W. FOLLETT moved for a rule to show cause why a quo warranto should not be filed against Christopher Alderson, to show by what authority he exercised the office of Alderman of Carnarvon. The proceedings in this borough had been rather extraordinary. When the first election took place under the Municipal Act, in the year 1836, Councillors were elected according to the provisions of the Act. When they assembled to elect the six Aldermen there appeared to be a majority.in favour of two persons, but for the other four there was en equany of votes, and they could not fill up the places of Aldermen. The Council remained incomplete till the year 1837, when they elected the remaining Aldermen, but the Councillors did not declare, according to the provisions of the 25th section, what Aldermen were to go out in 1838. They assembled shortly before the 9th of November, and came to a resolution that three persons whom they named should go out of office; and having served them with notice, they pro ceeded to elect other Aldermen in their room. He appre hended the whole of these proceedings were irregular, and they ought to have declared at the original meeting who were to go out, and have elected some others to supply their place. Mr. Justice LITTLEDALE.—Take a rule to show cause. We have had something relative to this borough before. Sir W. FOLLETT—Oh, yes; it has been constantly before the Court. The Corporation was never properly formed. Rule granted. COURT OF COMMISSIONERS OF EXCISE.-(THIS DAY.) The sittings of the Commissioners were resumed this day before the Hon. Berkley Paget, the Hon. Mr. Percey, and Hart Davis, Esq. SMUGGLlNG.—Catherine Bryan, Catherine Wilson, and William Wilson, were charged, on an Excise information, with haring illegally in their possession a quantity of illegal spirit. The Coma condemned the spirits seized, but remitted the penAlty. MARYLEBONE.-(TMS DAY.) Thomas Freeman, a middle-aged man, dressed in sailor's garb, was placed at the bar, charged with obtaining money from several persons under false pretences. Jemima Mathews stated that the prisoner represented him self to have brought some messages from her brother, who is 'in the Brazils. Ile said he had drafts and documents from the Admiralty Board, which entitled him to 221., and if she would lend him a sovereign, he would leave those papers as security. She did so ; her sister and another female acquaint ance lent her the respective sums of 2L 17s. 61. and 15s. They became anxious to be repaid, and he took them three or four fool's errands to the Admiralty-cflice, where they at last found he had no claims. The papers purported to be discharges from the Commanders of the Incomprehensible and Dolphin vessels, (name rather apropos by-tbe-bye to the use to which he ap plied the papers.) Inspector Wiggins requested the case might be postponed until Thursday, as be bad reason to b..- when this case became public, there would be many other chuges substantiated against him. A young man named John Hooke was charged with having fraudulently obtained a quantity of paper, va lue ten. pounds, from Mr. Dempsey a house-painter in Somer's place, New-road. The latter stated that the pri soner forged his father's name to several orders for the goods which were delivered to him. Samuel Hooke (the prisoner's father), appeared against him, and said his son had robbed to a great extent latterly, and he was now compelled to become a party in the present pro secution. The case was postponed until the pawnbrokers with whom the property was pledged should appear. The prisoner, when he found the prosecteion was. likely to be followed up, roared lustily, and it required three policemen to remove him to the cell. The Earl and Countess of Erroll, who have been visiting Lord and Lady Frederick Fitzclarence at Etal House, near Berwick-on-Tweed, have taken their departure. The Earl of Rosslyn, Lord Alfred Paget, and Lord Archibald Seymour have arrived at Melton Mowbray, to hunt with Lord Suffield's hounds. Sir Francis Burdett, Bart., M. P., and Lady Burdett arrived on Wednesday from Foremark, Derbyshire. THE WEATHER.—The weather durinc , the last few weeks has been excessively variable, one day intensely cold, and the next as remarkably warra, enough to try severely the strongest constitutions; in fact, rheumatism has ran frantic amongst the inhabitants of the metropolis and the large towns, yielding a golden harvest to the medical profession to an un precedented extent; and as a proof of its painful prevalency, the manufactory of Blair's Gout and Rheumatic Pills has been in unusual bustle in consequence of the increased number of individuals employed by the proprietor to enable him to meet their great demand, which has latterly far exceeded the means of supply. ADELPHI TIIEATRE.—A new burletta came out at this theatre last evening, entitled A Model of a Man, in which J. Webster, Collins, Mrs. Keeley, Mrs. Honey, and _ _ - . . Miss Shaw, severally displayed their vocal abilities I si song, aria-buffa, duet, &c., all upon the Adelphi pattern. The plot is simple enough. Prince Aldobrandi has a Palazzo, in which he will allow no other man to appear—nevertheless, the Count Leoni (Mr. Collins) does appear there in the disguise of a blind minstrel, and the Prince fancies that, in modern par lance he is " after his wife" Lucretia (Mrs. Hones), who has a page, Stephano (Mrs. Keeley ), to play the usual part of pages, in the usual way. The Count, however, is in reality but the lover of Angela (Miss Shaw), the Prince's sister, and this discovery is made sufficiently easy all through the piece, and very prominent in the denouement. There are two tableaux in the burletta—one theatrical, namely, " Diana and her Nymphs at the Bath"—the other artistical, namely, in the ordinary fashion, upon an easel. The latter, however, remains unfinished for want of A Model of a Man. A meeting of Magistrates took place yesterday at Kingston, to adjudicate upon summonses that had been issued by the parish authorities of Hampton Wick, against Lord George Seymour and others, residing in Hampton Palace, for the non-payment of the sums at which they had been respec tively assessed to the poor rate. Lord George was in:attend ance, and requested that the hearing of the case might be deferred that legal assistance might be obtained. It was not the amount of the rate that was objected to, but its principle, as invading the rights and privileges of the Crown. The application for a postponement was objected to by the parish, on the ground that as the rate had not been appealed against within the time prescribed by law its legality or illegality could not now be discussed. The defendants must, it was contended, pay the present rate and appeal against the next. Ultimately, however, the consideration of all the cases was put off for a meat. It was stated that the Poor-law Com missioners had approved of these proceedings on the part of the parish. On Saturday an inquest was held at the Sun Tavern, Great Ormond-street, Bloomsbury-square, on the body Of Mrs. Ann Eliza Sims, aged 51, who committed suicide by hanging herself. Deceased was the widow of the late Mr. Sims, one of the surgeons of St. Andrew's, Holborn, and who resided in Great Ormond -street. Mary Ann Gould, one of the deceased's servants, deposed that she had been three months and a fortnight in the service of her late unfortunate mistress, during which period she had been in very indifferent health. Mr. Sims, the deceased's husband, died on Monday se'nnight ; her mistress bad been much worse since that event, and frequently wandered in her mind. She (deceased) would weep, and say that she was sure her husband was buried alive ; and inquired of witness whether she had not seen his eyes move when in his coffin. About a quarter before nine o'clock on the forenoon of the previous day, the nurse who attended the deceased came down stairs to make breakfast for her mis tress. On her return up stairs, in about ton minutes, the de ceased was absent from her chamber; search was made, and the unfortunate lady was discovered suspended to a brass hook in a dressing-closet adjoining the chamber. Witness gave an alarm, and her mistress was cut down. Life appeared quite extinct. Mr. Davey, a surgeon, attended, and attempted to restore animation by bleeding and other remedies, but ineffec tually. The deceased it was stated lived on the best terms with her husband, and was of perfectly temperate habits. Ver dict—" Temporary Insanity."

The above prices are 10s. higher for good samples. TALLOW MARKET. P. Y. C. is steady at 555. 6d. to 555. 9d., and a fair business doing. COLONIAL MARKET. The public sales to-day were but of moderate dimensions, and not sufficient to alter prices, or to give any new feature to the market. British Plantation Sugar sells pretty steadily, at previous rates of 495. 6d. to 525. fer brown. Two public sales of Barbadoes realized much about previous rates. Coffee, 100 casks British Plantation, and 78 baskets 6 barrels Mocha sold, but not with spirit, at much their previous value. Cocoa, 123 bags British Plantation, part sold at prices varying between 383. and 505., according to quality, Some small parcels of Ginger and Pepper went at former quotations. A small parcel of Bengal Sugar, 265 bags, sold without showing any change in the value of the article. In fact, these public sales are all of insufficient magnitude and importance to affect the market ; 1,600 bags Saltpetre sold according to refraction, at prices varying from 245. 6d. to 265. 6d. For to-morrow we have no public sales of Colonial produce, except 1,000 bags Bengal Sugar. The imports of Colonial produce are light. LLOYD'S SHIPPING.—(THIS DAY.) DEAL, Nov. 12, r. AL—Wind N.

HA NO VER, Nov. 2.—A very strange event is now the subject of universal attention. Among the recent changes in the persons holding high offices under Government, none, perhaps, was more regretted by the circle which was chiefly interested than the removal of the highly-respected Landroit Meyer at Luneberg. Never was a public officer so respected by those under him as Meyer, who was equally distinguished by knowledge, probity, benevolence, and true piety. Meyer bad obtained permission from the former Ministry to reside in the Palace of Luneburg, and being himself very rich, and keeping up a great establishment as holding the highest office, bad furnished this his official residence in a suitable manner with great magnificence and taste, as his Majesty the King had seen when he put up at the Palace at Luneburg. Ac cording to the King's arrangement the new Landroit was not to reside in the Palace, which was to be the residence of the Prince of Solms, who was to go to Luneburg, and, it is said, be appointed Commandant there. His Majesty purchased for 5,000 dollars the furniture, still new, belonging to M. Meyer, who removed to Osnaburg. Meyer removed on the 30th of October—in a few hours afterwards the Palace was in flames. The cause of the fire is not known, nor yet the particulars of the misfortune.
